The Tiger’s Sharpener is a gift for exactly those people: for a birthday, a graduation, Christmas, or simply because someone has a desk that deserves better than throwaway accessories. Papier Tigre was founded in Paris in 2012 and has built a reputation for stationery with personality — functional, colourful, unmistakable. With the Tiger’s Sharpener, you’re not just giving a sharpener: you’re giving a small piece of Parisian stationery culture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cp class=\"cm-section-label\"\u003eCrank.
